Words make more sense together.

Save a new word together with its context. Yawca instantly shows what it means in that very sentence — and it's already a flashcard, with translation, pronunciation and examples of real-life usage.

Save the sentence, not just the word.

Words without context don't stick. What helps you remember is the sentence you found a word in — so Yawca keeps the two together, always.

Paste the line where you met the word and tap the words you don't get — a single word or a whole phrase. It takes a few seconds.

Everything about a word, in one place.

Turning a word into a flashcard is usually a chore. Not here: no dictionary, no filling in fields, no hunting for examples. Yawca reads the sentence and shows the meaning that fits it. Everything you'd look up is already on the card:

  • The meaning in context — the sense used in your sentence, not every sense the word has.
  • Translation into your language — pick your native language once.
  • Pronunciation — hear how it's said.
  • Your original sentence — saved with the word, so you remember where you met it.
  • Real-life usage — how the word is really used by people, not textbook examples.
  • Up-to-date context — mentions in news from around the world, as new articles come in.
  • Pronunciation in real life — hear the word spoken in real videos, with natural stress and intonation.

See how your words are really used.

Always up-to-date context.

Language moves fast, and so does the news. Yawca keeps spotting your saved words in news articles as new ones come in, so you see how a word is used in today's English — real sentences on real topics, not textbook examples. Every new mention is one more fresh context, and the word becomes a little more yours.

Hear it said out loud.

Search any word or phrase across real videos and jump straight to the moment it's spoken. Hear the pronunciation, the stress and the intonation in real speech — the things no card or dictionary transcription can teach you.

Practice that fits into a coffee break.

  • Spaced repetition that adapts to you

    Words fade when you don't come back to them, so each one returns right before you're likely to forget it. Words you know well appear less often; tricky ones come back sooner.

  • Always in context

    Cards show the sentence you saved, plus real news quotes using the same phrase.

  • See your progress

    Track how many new words you add each week and how each word's reviews have gone.
